The Movie Thread

I like horror and then I saw a trailer on YT “Longlegs” (2024). I thought it would be a good movie. Then I saw who was on the cast list and Nicolas Cage was starring there. In short, I will not watch this movie. I don’t like this actor at all.

This movie apparently has a tv series coming out in a couple days.

when this movie came out, i saw it available to rent on VHS, but it was PG-13 and i was too young. By the time i was oldcenough, it disappeared from the shelves and it was forgotten and unwatched.
Finally came across a copy of it. Watchingbit now.
Also picked up the original Dungeons and Dragons to keep the theme for the evening.

A Quiet Place - Day One
Not exactly life-changing but good fun. Jut switch your brain off when it becomes too absurd. The reals stars are the 2 cats they used for the movie. The whole time I’m thinking about my Siamese and how dead we’d instantly be, since meowing (a lot) is one of her favorite pastimes.

MaXXXine
Fun movie, especially as I’ve been to almost all the film’s locations. Pretty cool recreation of 1985. Pearl remains the best one of the trilogy though.

Day One was more a cat movie than anything… and that made me love it!

Loved the theme of dealing with end of life/death too. Thought the main actor was fantastic. I enjoyed it overall but yeah, not oscar material or anything. Love the QP storyline!

I tried to watch In a Violent Nature, but turned it off after 30 minutes. I don’t know how that badly written, badly acted, badly shot piece of shit got any media attention. I’ve got better things to watch lol.

A quiet place is really just a silent film about people running and hiding from aliens.

It looks like not a lot of effort was put into the plot/idea of the film…not denying that making it took some effort, just saying the premise seems creatively lazy to me. Idk…

My friend/old roommate came over to watch a movie last night. The last time we had a movie night was like three years ago, so that was fun.

She wanted to watch something “totally fucked up,” and I’ve been wanting to show her Climax by Gaspar Noé for a while. She liked it a lot, so that was cool. It’s pretty intense. Nice EDM soundtrack.

Right at the end of the first half she was like “So…what is this movie actually about?” and then five minutes later she was like “OH SHIT.”

I watched Longlegs(2024) yesterday. I liked it. Pretty scary

like how scary?

my wife thinks Poltergeist (original) is scary and she’s still really upset with me for “throwing on” Event Horizon when she fell asleep and I left the room to go do stuff and she woke up at the “where we’re going we won’t need eyes” part, which is like the least scary part… she didn’t even see the child getting ripped apart… and she’s still mad at me for showing her Hellraiser which I said “wasn’t that scary”… come on it’s not that bad… (she scowls when I say “come to daddy”).

So on a scale of My Wife’s Preferred Content (Downton Abbey/Chip and Joanna Gaines building projects) to my “It’s not that scary I swear” (LET JESUS FUCK YOU/Lucky likes your shampoo)… how scary is it?

She claims she can handle Longlegs and I told her she’s full of shit.

I FUCKING LOVE SPOOKY SEASON

It’s scary 7/10. Maybe because i felt that way that night. There is much satanism in that movie. It’s the most satanic movie i saw. No the most satanic was Suspiria (2018) :smile: :smile: :smile: Well, the main character (evil) is very unpleasant, what else can I say. LONGLEGS will scary your wife for sure. Hellraiser(2022) is also a disgusting and unpleasant movie. I don’t know how she endured watching it.

Well, there’s not as much “fuss” as in the previous films that I mentioned. In short, you can watch, but there is a lot of Satanism.

Nah the OG Hellraiser. I watched the 2022 one and was like “naah I wanna stay married” :psybermoji: :wtf: :amazing: :wobblebass:

I am 100% pro satanism

also at some point we should talk about the difference between “satanism” as a religion and things that depict the satanic themes from the christian perspective

hail satan

Scary and disgusting are like two entirely different evenings. I wish modern horror would ramp down the gore a little so pusses like me could enjoy them, too :smiley:

And the sequel is gonna be somewhat of musical…

In all honesty

I don’t think anybody’s cared for a while now.

I stayed up too late last night and rewatched Upgrade on 4k. Still a good movie, and I never realized how much color was in it until now.
